M. pn Change to-day wheat was firm and flour quiet and strong. The cotton market was steady at a slight improvement. THE COTTON MOVEMENT. To-day closes the cotton year of 1871-72, The figures of the total crop will not be known for a ‘week or two hence, or until we have the statistics of the internal cotton movement. The receipts at the ports during the past week have been 4,461 bales, and the total receipts during the cotton year, which began September J, 1871, amount to 2,724,189 bales, against 4,009,502 bales for the previous year, showing a decrease in the present crop of 1,285,313 bales, The exports from all the ports for the week were 4,993 bales, against 12,858 bales for the same date last year. The total exports for the expired portion of the cotton year are 1,950,432 bales, against 3,164,765 bales last year, @ decrease of 1,205,333 bales. The stock at all the ports is 45,920 bales, against 99,040 bales at this Gate in 1871. THE IMPORTS OF THE WEEK. The total imports of foreign goods at this port during the past week were $11,092,938, distributed between $4,379,273 of dry goods and $6,713,665 o¢ general mercnandise. THE BANK STATEMENT. The weekly statement of the associated banks $s quite unfavorable. The decrease in deposita is nearly seven and a half millions, indicating a larger flow of currency to the interior than was apparent in the money market during the past week. The loss in legal tenders is a million ang @ half, and in specte a full million and three-quar- ters. The sum of these items added to a con- traction of over three and a half millions in loans goes far to explain the heavy decrease in de- posits. The statement compares with its prede- cessor as follows :— ; August 31. An analysis of these figures shows that the banks have decreased their liabilities only $7,309,800 against a loss of $3,307,000 in legal reserve. Their surplus is therefore impaired to the extent of $1,479,650, and is now reduced to $4,141,400, MONEY 3 Tu 7 PER CENT. The money market was easy at 3 a4 percent on the better class of collaterals and at 4a5 per cent on the usual stocks until near the close of banking hours, when a sudden inquiry wag responded to by an advance in the rate to6 a7 per cent. The un- favorable character of the bank statement, a raid on the part of the stock “bears” and a@ dilatory making up of accounts by some of the brokers were each offered as the explanation o1 this activity. Doubtiess it may be laid to alittle of all three. Prime discounts were quoted 7 a 9 per cent for first- elass names. Foreign exchange was dull and heavy on the basis of 108% 9 1093 for prime ster- dng. GOVERNMENTS DULL. ‘The government list was, dull and barely steady.

There was @ further small yielding in the stovk market, the decline ranging from an eighth to five eighths per cent, but averaging hardly more than a quarter percent. The lowest prices were gene- rally made towards the close or after an opportu- nity had been given for a discussion of the bank statement. Erie was unusually quiet. The trunk lines of railroad have adopted a new freight schedule advancing rates 334; per cent upon the previous tariff, which goes into effect Monday morning. So far the announcement has had no effect upon either New York Central or Erie, but the change was not generally known to-day, so | that it will be time enough next week to look for results, if auy, from this influence, There was a fairly active trade in the new South Carolinas of both kinds and a firm feeling in the bonds. The southern list was otherwise steady and neglected. HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES.

One of the most important adjuncts of the Custom’ House, in fact the one of the greatest vitality to its existence, are the bonded stores, or ware- houses, devoted to the safe keeping of the im- Portations, upon which the government has a claim for impost duties, ‘These receptacles of foreign merchandise are scattered over a circuit of fifteen miles, from Hunter's Point on the East to Jersey City and Hoboken on the North River. This, however, we gave extensive notice in an article upon that subject in onr edition of the 27th ult, Our object to-day is to show the manner in which the government fs secured in allowing THE CUSTODY OF DUTIABLE GOODS to go into the hands of parties not in the employ ofthe coantry, With the exception of the Public Stores in New Church and Greenwich streets the Custom House authorities have no warehouse of their own to store goods, There are at this present moment under bond, to store imported merchandise, 132 warchouses, which are divided into three class Class 2 1s for the storage of tmported goods for proprietors’ own importations only, Class 3 for the general storage of bonded mer- chandise, while Class 4 are moat generally enclosed yarda, de- voted to the storage of sugar, molasses, railroad and other tron, &c. It is required that classes,2 and 3 bonded ware- houses must consist of entire buildings, every por- tion of which is to be under government surveil- lance, The proprietors of the 132 warehouses are under bonds to the United States government for the faithful fulfliment of the duties required of them, the conditions of which are:—To comply in all re- spects with the provisions and requirements of the Warehousing laws and the regulations of the Treasury Department relating thereto, and exonerate and hold the United States and its om- cers harmless from or on account of any risk, loss or expense of any kind or description connected with or arising from the deposit or keeping of im- ported merchandise under the provisions of the several acts of Coagress concerning warehousing, and shall also pay to the Collector monthly the sal- wy of the customs oiticer or officers in charge of sald goods, wares and merchandise, and shall re- ceive for storage therein such unclaimed and seized 0°88 as the Collector of the Customs may order to deposited in said warehouse, and shall safely keep and deliver to the claimant, on the order of the Collector, all seized goods stored as atoresaid, and all unclaimed goods, on payment of storage and charges, and shall ‘promptly report to the Collector any and all damaged or perishable articles that may be found or stored in said ware- house, and shall not receive any gunpowder or other dangerous or explosive substance (except firecrackers) in said warehouse; and shall not re- move, or suffer to be removed, any gocds, wa or merchandise from said warehouse without lawful permit and without the presence of the customs officer in charge.” In the execution of this class of bonds, the following in- structions must be particularly observed and complied 29 Broadway, corner of Barclay str New York.

The books are then examined as to the true facts of the statement, when, if correct, the Collector endorses the application and sends it to the Treasury Department for final action, and upon approval by the Secretary the government locks are removed and the Storekeepers transferred. BONDS ARE NEVER CANCELLED and hold good for ever. ‘The facts of the warehouse ceasing to be under government control are, how- ever, endorsed upon the face of the bond, and en- tered into the book devoted to that purpose. Un- der the existing internal revenue laws each bond had to be stamped according to the amount repre- sented, This tax, however, ceases on and after September 1. THE VARIOUS BONDED STORES contain certain lines of goods—for instance, those of Woodruff & Robinson, in Brooklyn, who have twenty-two stores, under an aggregate bondage of $570,000—are devoted to the storage of sugar, molasses, salt and iron. The Harbeck, and Martin & Fay stores of Brooklyn, store exclusively coffee and linseed. Henry J. Meyers’ stores, on the North River, are used exclusively by A. T. Stewart & Co., H. B. Claflin & Co, and other leading dry Cag houses for their imports, and the major portion of the East River stores are devoted mainly to the reception of East India and Mediterranean merchandise, GOODS ENTERED UNDER WAREHOUSE BONDS from August 1 to August 31 of this year have been in excess over the corresponding date of last year forty-eight per cent. The number of these entries numbered 20,460, against 14,020. This increase, however, does not tend to show a greater ity in business, but merely demonstrates a caretul calculation of the importers not to withdraw more be from bond for consumption than the actual lemmand of trade requires. THE DUTIES OF STOREKEEPERS, as defined by the collector, are very stringent. They are required to keep possession of the keys in thetr charge, be in attendance at the stores from | sunrise to sunset, and not be absent more than one hour at their meals, during which the stores must be closed.

The court official stated Rynders came into court with a man having his head tied up, and asked if he wouid have time to et something to eat before the arrival of the Judge. the officer states he left his prisoner sitting in the audience, and while after his coffee and cakes the prisoner quietly left the court room and disap- jared, Which story is true will have to be decided yy the Police Commissioners, who are already cogni- zant of the loose manner in which prisoners have been allowed privileges for some tine past especially low females from the Fighth and Fi teenth wards, who have been shown as much courtesy and favor as could be meted out to the most aristocratic ladics of the metropolis.

She was attirea in 3 common calico dress, black shawl, and carried @ small leather reticule in her hand. She appeared somewhat nervous and agitated over the dis- closures made in the papers of her unfortunate and humiliating position, and related her story to the Justice in a trembling and sorrowful manner. She stated the person who had caused her ruin was @ young man who had been employed in the same peg hom herself, but is at present out of the city on @ visit to some friends in Massachusetts. She ex- onerates Savage from all complicity § in the matter, and stated he only accompanied her to the doctor's office at the request of her mother. The doctor wi fashionably attired in a suit of immaculate white, with a clean sha face, and would not be taken for a person forty-five years of age. His assistant, the woman Sharp, is & coarse, vulgar looking female, and pre- sents the appearance of being able to undertake any crime, no matter of how heinous a nature. The young woman stated she called on the doctor at his office on two occasions before the arrest, each time of which the doctor operated on her with instruments and a galvanic battery for the purpose of producing an abortion; that the opera- tion gave her great pain, and, so far as she could roved successful; that the old man, Savage, accompanied her there as a frien of the family, and assisted in aamin- istering the electricity; that he had informed the doctor that she was one of tie unfortunates and wished to be rid of her troubles. The woman Sharp claimed to have no connection with the es- taplishment other than that of a housekeeper. Selden denied having endeavored to produce an abortion on the woman, but admitted having ex- amined her at the request of Savage and the girl to ascertain whether she was pregnant or not; that from the examinations je he became satisfied that she was not pregnant at all, but was only suf- fering from @ severe cold.
